Arif Khan's London Marathon 2023

Hi, my name is Arif and I have a passion for running.

I regularly run across Oxfordshire, mainly around the city and my local neighbourhood. In recent years, I developed a passion for the sport and have since taken part in multiple events. It's now more of an obsession!

When I'm not running I drive buses around the beautiful city of Oxford, I am a driver with the Oxford Bus Company with whom I have been employed for just over 13 years. Oxford Bus Company have been amazing in supporting my running passion. Over the years they have helped with sponsorship, running kits, travel and free time to take part in some of the charity events.

This year is a big one, I will be taking part in the London Marathon which will be a first for me and the ultimate dream as an amateur runner.

More importantly, I'm also raising money in aid of Cancer Research UK.

Cancer Research UK is the world's leading charity dedicated to research on the causes, treatment and prevention of cancer. Thanks to research, more people are surviving cancer than ever before, so every donation will help greatly.

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause, that means so much to me.
